I know people like to shit on people who think something is just automatically better when it's done in Japan but does anyone else feel the same way about France? It can be just a standard beef stew but when you give it a French name and follow a French recipe it automatically becomes better
You have a boring European street and it becomes better when you see a French signpost You have a piece of furniture that could have been made anywhere in Europe and yet when you know it was made in France in a style that was popular in southern France in the late 19th century it becomes almost sublime
The way that it becomes better is even stranger, it becomes more than the thing itself It's not just tastier, it doesn't just sound better, it's not just better quality, it doesn't just feel better and it doesn't just look better but it's fundamentally more in a way that I can't adequately describe What is this mental illness called?
Ok but it's extremely easy for people like me to just see modern France as not actually being France anymore Not a problem for me

Francophilia has been a thing for a very long time, zoomie. Why do you think Paris is romanticized by all women of the past century?
Camden Butler
No one likes this shithole. Francophilia is a meme and thats a good thing
Joshua Scott
>You have a piece of furniture that could have been made anywhere in Europe and yet when you know it was made in France in a style that was popular in southern France in the late 19th century it becomes almost sublime can't empathise, must be a femoid thing
Connor Carter
I met a girl in Turkey and she wanted to come to France because she fell for the French cultural propaganda
Oliver Long
I'm an MtF so your attempt at an insult doesn't hurt me, sorry That's not true
Luis Barnes
Thank you France is the best country to live in, cultural hegemony before 2050
Cameron Howard
Oh and ignore the schizo french he shits on France in everythread he can, just dont give him attention or (you)
Luke Diaz

Kayden Barnes

Ayden Parker
Its is completely true regadless of what the seething mamadous itt say

>modern France as not actually being France anymore
Japan weebism is more common in zoomers (the social media generation). That’s why all the memes revolve around Japan. France weebism and Italian weebism are still common but not as much in zoomies.
Luis Phillips
I've never understood Italian weebism When did it begin exactly? I did because I'm retarded I think English literature is superior sorry Do you meet people like that in France or is it only online? I always thought French people were meant to be haughty about their culture Aren't you in a complete decline outside of Africa? It seems like modern France is nearly irrelevant outside of things like Emily in Paris and Houellebecq
Noah Barnes
>Japan weebism is more common in zoomers
wtf weebs don't exist
Evan Garcia
Irl everyone knows this country is complete shit. People have different ways to cope with that but the other posters itt are just africans that shill for france to keep getting gibs
Juan Young
france is completely irrelevant nowadays. Our army doesnt even have ammo and macron is planning to give lands away to other countries not even joking.
Adam Sanchez
Well I don't know personally how bad France is now but that's besides the point, when people say they're interested in a country or they like a country that doesn't mean they're only talking about that country as it is now Could you give me some search terms so I can read what you're talking about with the last thing? Do you think Australia reneging on the nuclear submarines has hurt France's relevance?
Ryan Bennett
I wonder what kind of lives you live. I think France is great, and even more so every time I travel somewhere else.
Ethan Bennett
Yes, France is still a good brand but its glory is gradually fading away. I've even noticed a trend that to depict "generic Europe" in some random article about some event in Europe, global media use other pics than Paris, often Prague, even though a decade ago Paris would've been the only obvious choice. It must be something.
Nathaniel Bailey
Where do you guys live in France? I wonder if that affects how you view France
Jack Morris
>Could you give me some search terms so I can read what you're talking about with the last thing? Google macron, iles éparses. He is gfting them all away to mauritius or madagascar >Do you think Australia reneging on the nuclear submarines has hurt France's relevance? No because france was already a third world irrelevant shithole to begin with
Carson Myers
Of course, France in some sense is to the modern world what Athens was to the Mediterranean in the 1st century BCE.
Cooper Baker
I live between Bourgogne and Paris.
Charles Mitchell
Idk for the other poster, i live somewhere deep inland in paca. Nearest city is gap. I have been abroad and it only conforted me into thinking france was a third world country.
Justin Barnes
There is nothing interesting about france. It was the most bland and vanilla country you could think of and now we are just a horrible shithole filled with africans and commies
